Writer's note: this post is a part of a series called "Burning" that examines the Biblical account of Moses & the burning bush and how this account is a blueprint for restoring this nation.

Blueprint:1) [re]Connect2) Assemble [a team]3) Ask [for help]

Exodus 4:10 Moses said to the LORD, "Pardon your servant, Lord. I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of speech and tongue." 11 The LORD said to him, "Who gave human beings their mouths? Who makes them deaf or mute? Who gives them sight or makes them blind? Is it not I, the LORD? 12 Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say."

My wife wouldn't let me mount our flat panel TV over the fireplace. Not in as much of the look, but because my handiwork around the house is legendarily not the best. Power drills, hammers and stud finders give me fits. Oh, I try to be handy and I can do little tasks such as hanging pictures. However, hanging a 42 inch TV in our living room, not so much. Fortunately, I have my father-in-law. A veteran of the construction business for 40+ years, Ed was called in to mount the TV.

I have learned over time that I have good skills, great skills and not so great skills. I have also come to understand that the word "help" is a good four-letter word.

Moses understood that when he would go to the Egyptian government asking for change, he needed help - to speak. Realizing his shortcoming of being slow in speech, Moses asked God for help. God delivered Moses' plea for help by bringing his brother Aaron to the fold to speak for Moses when facing Pharaoh.

Good leaders must grasp the realization that they cannot lead a movement, an event, and/or even their families without seeking help from others. Most importantly, leaders must ask God for help, just like Moses.

Help comes from all areas -- God, people signing onto your team, prayer warriors, family support, monetary, and logistics to name just a few. Therefore, restoring this nation back to constitutional principles, sound financial standing and individual freedoms, must involve leaders and their supporters checking their pride at the door and asking for help.

Believe that asking for help is not a sign of weakness, but of strength.

Act by offering your help to those you perceive in leadership needs it.
